Calcium cyanamide on treatment with steam produces:
Calcium cyanamide on treatment with steam produces:
- A. \( N H_{3}+C a O \)
- B. \( N H_{3}+ \) СаНСО
- C. \( N H_{3}+C a C O_{3} \)
- D. \( N H_{3}+C a(O H)_{2} \)
Step-by-step solution
Calcium cyanamide (CaCN2) reacts with steam (H2O) via hydrolysis to produce ammonia (NH3) and calcium carbonate (CaCO3). The balanced reaction is: CaCN2 + 3H2O → CaCO3 + 2NH3.
